Parable? By fnordiscordia Bob, Tommy, and Vince were three ordinary boys who were on their way to a Karate camp in the mountains. Vince had recently gotten his license, so he was the driver. He had just bought a brand new car that he had saved up all throughout high-school in order to afford. Vince’s parents didn’t want him to drive but he insisted on it. Unfortunately, Vince wasn’t ready to make this trip. The mountain roads were soon covered in snow and Vince inevitably lost control of his car, crashing it into a tree. Aside from a few scrapes and bruises, all three boys came away from the accident unharmed. However, the car that Vince had worked so hard for was destroyed and now completely useless. The three were stranded on the mountain with little food and water. The boys decided to split what little food and water they had equally among themselves. Bob decided to consume it all at once. “Better too much than not enough,” he said. Vincent decided that he would consume as little as possible to make it last well into their stay at the camp. Tommy, on the other hand, decided that he would consume only what he needed, not too much, not too little. So, having distributed their food, the boys set off for the camp on foot. Eventually they all made it to the camp, but two of them were a little worse for the wear. Bob was very weak as he had eaten all of his food at the beginning of the trip. Vince was starving from having not eaten enough food. His remaining food, which he refused to share, had spoiled. Tommy was neither weak nor starving because he chose to use moderation. Tommy avoided extremes and was the best off for it. So, what is the moral of this story? Don’t drive your car into a tree.
Her Preyer We believe in Eris the sometimes-bitchy Chaotic purveyor of Earth We believe in Emperor Norton, her only son, our loony. He was conceived a while ago but given a rebirth by Lord Omar and the pen of Mal. We suffer under various leaders, are cruelly ignored and shrugged off. The universe continues to sink into Babylon. When the 5th Season is over we will rise again and go about our business. We are laying at the left hand of the Hot Mama. Who can't be bothered to judge the cabbages and the Subgenii, but if she did Her mercy would have no bounds (maybe). We believe in the corruption of the Popes, The disorganization of their churches, The communion of the hot dog buns, The forgiveness of orderly thoughts, The resurrection of former addictions And of life spent hedonistically in Castle Chaos... Awomen.
The 23rd Psalm of Eris by Ratatosk, Squirrel of Discord
The goddess is my dealer I shall not want for weed. In green cannabis pastures she lets me lie down. She leads me by the ‘Still’ waters of fermented grain. My bowl she refreshes, She leads me in the path of Discord for her own enjoyment… Yea, though I walk in the Valley of the Shadow of Greyface, I will fear no Pigs. For She is with me. Her bong and her hooka, they comfort me. She prepares a J for me in the presence of my friends. She anoints me with Bacardi 151. My shot glass runneth over. Surely Chaos and Discord shall follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in Limbo with Eris Forever.

“The Law of Fives The Law of Fives is one of the oldest Erisian Mysterees. It was first revealed to Good Lord Omar and is one of the great contributions to come from The Hidden Temple of The Happy Jesus. POEE subscribes to the Law of Fives of Omar's sect. And POEE also recognizes the holy 23 (2+3=5) that is incorporated by Episkopos Dr. Mordecai Malignatus, KNS, into his Discordian sect, The Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria. The Law of Fives states simply that: ALL THINGS HAPPEN IN FIVES, OR ARE DIVISIBLE BY OR ARE MULTIPLES OF FIVE, OR ARE SOMEHOW DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY APPROPRIATE TO 5. The Law of Fives is never wrong. In the Erisian Archives is an old memo from Omar to Mal-2: "I find the Law of Fives to be more and more manifest the harder I look."” ~ PRINCIPIA DISCORDIA
conserning marijuana and it’s legality Marijuana prohibition applies to everyone, including the constipated. Of all the negative consequences of prohibition, none is as tragic as the denial of medicinal cannabis to the tens of thousands of patients who could benefit from its laxative use. Modern research suggests that cannabis is a valuable aid in the treatment of a wide range of clinical applications, most recently as a miracle colonial decloggier. Marijuana is also a powerful appetite stimulant, specifically for patients suffering from HIV, the AIDS wasting syndrome, or dementia. A stimulated hunger, with a built in laxative, would be a true miracle for sufferers of many ailments. A laxative is a preparation used for encouraging defecation, or the elimination of feces. Laxatives are most often taken to treat constipation. Certain stimulant, lubricant, and saline laxatives are used to evacuate the colon for rectal and bowel examinations. Most commonly things such as chemicals and irritants, enemas, drive through Mexican food, and stimulants are used. It has been shown that stimulant laxatives and enemas are addictive, and can cause damage. Marijuana is unique among know forms of constipation relaxation in that it is not habit forming, contains less toxins, and in many cases, has been known to improve or lighten mood. Both AIDS and Cancer reduce appetite. Imagine if you will, an AIDS or Cancer patient who happens to have a constipation problem. Not only would Marijuana
give the patient hunger, it would relax their bowels to aid in needed relief, and if that didn’t improve the mood already, it gives a sense of euphoria. Virtually every government-appointed commission to investigate marijuana's medical potential has issued favorable findings. These include the U.S. Institute of Medicine in 1982, the Australian National Task Force on Cannabis in 1994, and the U.S. National Institutes of Health Workshop on Medical Marijuana in 1997. More recently, Jonesboro's House of Eris' Science and Fnord Committee found in 2006 that the available evidence supported the legal use of medical cannabis. KSCs determined: "The government should allow doctors to prescribe cannabis for medical use. ... Cannabis can be effective in some patients to relieve symptoms of constipation, and improve hunger. ... This evidence is enough to justify a change in the law." This is not a call to change law. Just perception. Yours Truly Jonesboro's House of Eris' Science and Fnord Committee
MU MU!!!! We’ll begin with a band that, in the late 80’s and early 90’s, used the name Justified Ancients of MU MU. The KLF- also known by various other names including The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, The Timelords, The K Foundation, and 2K - were one of the seminal bands of the British acid house movement during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
They gained notoriety for various anarchic situationist manifestations which included billboard advert defacements; a Brit awards protest involving a machine gun, a dead sheep and buckets of blood; highly unique and abnormal performances on Top of the Pops; peculiar mainstream press adverts and regular full page ads in the NME; the staging of an alternative art award for the worst artist of the year; and burning a million pounds sterling. The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu name was adopted in 1987 by Drummond and Cauty, fans of "The Illuminatus! Trilogy" books. They mirrored the fictional JAMs' gleeful political devices of causing chaos and confusion by bringing a direct, comical. yet nevertheless ground-breaking approach to making records. The JAMs' chief instrument was the newly invented digital
sampler, with which they would plagiarize the history of popular music, cutting chunks from existing works and pasting them into new contexts. An early and influential influence in the maturity of sampling music in the United Kingdom, The JAMs scandalously and deliberately ran afoul of copyright laws when they sampled large portions of the ABBA single Dancing Queen. After a legal showdown with ABBA and the MechanicalCopyright Protection Society, their debut album 1987: What The Fuck Is Going On? had to be withdrawn from sale. In the first KLF Communications "info sheet" sent out to fans and journalists in October 1987 - Drummond said "At the end of last year I was reading the ultimate paranoid conspiracy book(s) The Illuminatus Trillogy. I was bored by all music bar the almost unlistenable hip-hop, scratch and rap that John Peel was playing between the safe shambo- lic bands. I was wanting to kick over, blow up, tear down most of what I thought was shit. At the end of last year I couldn't understand why not everybody else was wanting to do the same. Who are The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu? you ask. Not us, we just pinched the name from some characters in the Illuminatus. We do get strange letters from people telling us we are getting ourselves into "Deep Shit" by using their name, that the real ancients won't be pleased. After the end of last year I asked Rockman Rock if he wanted to tear some things down, he did. So we made a record, pressed five hundred, the fuse was lit"
Enter Tammy Wynette Tammy Wynette (May 5, 1942 April 6, 1998) was an American country singer and songwriter. She was known as the "First Lady of Country Music" and one of her best-known songs was "Stand by Your Man," which was one of the biggest selling hit singles by a woman in the history of the music genre.
After working various side jobs such as picking cotton, waiting tables, being a receptionist, a barmaid, and working in a shoe factory, she went to beauty school, and became a hairdresser. In 1965 her baby developed spinal meningitis and Wynette tried to make extra money by performing at night. Once famous she had many relationships, most notably with George Jones and CARD CARRYING SUB-GENIUS Burt Reynolds. She also had a number of serious physical ailments beginning in the 1970s, including operations on her gall bladder, kidney and on the nodules on her throat.
In 1988 she filed for bankruptcy as a consequence of a bad investment in two shopping centers. She recorded a song with the British electronica group The KLF in late 1991 titled "Justified and Ancient (Stand by the JAMs)", which became a number one hit in eighteen countries the following year. In the video, scrolling electronic titles said that "Miss Tammy Wynette is the first lady of country music". Wynette appeared in the video seated on a throne. Although some saw the inclusion of Wynette as a novel ploy for interest to the song - The KLF were well known for scams and stunts - her inclusion was a mark of admiration from The KLF and not an after-thought or marketing scheme. Wynette's vocal performance was brilliant and the song was in all probability one of the superior dance songs of the early 1990s in terms of melodic construction and presentation. In 1992, future First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton said during a 60 Minutes interview that she wasn't "some little woman, standing by my man, like Tammy Wynette". The comment set off a firestorm of hullabaloo and Wynette demanded, and received, an apology from Clinton. THE SONG “JUSTIFIED AND ANCIENT” has recently been adopted by Jonesboro’s House of Eris’ Science and Fnord Committee as it’s “house song.”
AS FOR MU MU ITSELF:
WHAT IS MU!? 1) Mu is a fictional continent in the Cthulhu mythos of H.P. Lovecraft. The lost continent of Mu appears in numerous mythos stories, including many written by Lin Carter.
Mu is a sunken continent in the Pacific Ocean. Before it sank, Mu is believed to be the place where humans first appeared. The ancient Muvians worshipped countless gods, but the most important ones were the three "sons" of Cthulhu: Zoth-Ommog, Ghatanothoa, and Ythogtha. It was the Muvian's reverence for this triad of brothers that may have hastened their downfall. There is much speculation about what caused Mu to sink into the ocean. However, the Zanthu Tablets offers the best explanation. According to the tome, the high priest Zanthu angered the Elder Gods when he attempted to summon Ythogtha to challenge the power of Ghatanothoa. In retaliation, the Elder Gods destroyed Mu and sank it beneath the waves. Mount Yaddith-Gho is a towering basalt mountain on the continent of Mu. Its peak is topped with a colossal, ancient, stone fortress which legends claim was built eons ago by a race of beings that came from the planet Yuggoth. Inside the fortress is a huge trapdoor that seals an entryway to the interior of the mountain. More than 200,000 years ago, Mount Yaddith-Gho was situated in the kingdom of Kn'aa. The mountain was sacred because it was the dwelling place of the god Ghatanothoa. Priests of Ghatanothoa built a temple at the mountain's base and offered regular sacrifies to the god, lest Ghatanothoa emerge from the bowels of Mount Yaddith-Gho, crawl down its slopes, and bring doom to humankind.
2)
Mu is the name of a Lost Land, or theoretical vanished continent, located in the Pacific Ocean but now, like AtlantisLemuria (with which it is sometimes identified), believed to have sunk beneath the waters. Current knowledge of the mechanisms of plate tectonics rules out the possibility of a major continent having existed in the Pacific. Continental masses are composed of the lighter SiAlsilicon/aluminum) type rocks which literally float on the
heavier SiMg (silicon/magnesium) rocks which constitute ocean bottoms. The Pacific basin is noticeably lacking in SiAl rock. Augustus Le Plongeon The idea of Mu first appeared in the works of the antiquarian Augustus Le Plongeon (1825–1908), a 19th century traveler and writer who conducted his own investigations of the Maya ruins in Yucatán. He announced that he had translated the ancient Mayan writings, which supposedly showed that the Maya of Yucatán were older than the later civilizations of Atlantis and Egypt, and additionally told the story of an even older continent of Mu, which had foundered in a similar fashion to Atlantis, with the survivors founding the Maya civilization. (Later students of the Ancient Maya writings have found that Le Plongeon's "translations" were based on little more than his vivid imagination.) James Churchward This lost continent was later popularised by James Churchward1852–1936) in a series of books, beginning with The Children of Mu (1931), The Lost Continent Mu (1933), and The Sacred Symbols of Mu (1935). The books still have devotees, but they are not considered serious archaeology, and nowadays are found in bookshops classed under 'New Age' or 'Religion and Spirituality'. Other authors Mu is identified with Lemuria in the Illuminatus! trilogy of Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson, and Martin GardnerFads and Fallacies in the Name of Science. Archaeological evidence The Morien Institute has identified underwater structures located off the coast of Yonaguni, in Okinawa, Japan as possibly being ruins of Mu. [1] There is little scientific evidence to support this assertion, and geologists generally believe that the rock
formations were caused by geological processes and are of natural, not man-made, origin.
3) Mu (Japanese/Korean), Wú/Mou5 (ChineseMandarin/Cantonese); ?, simplified: ?) is a word which can be roughly translated as "without" or "have not". While typically used as a prefix to imply the absence of something (e.g., ?? musen for "wireless"), it is more famously used as a response to certain koans and other questions in Zen Buddhism, intending to indicate that the question itself was wrong. The 'Mu' koan is as follows: A monk asked Zen master Zhaozhou, a Chinese Zen Master (in Japanese, Joshu): "Has a dog Buddha-nature or not?", Zhaozhou answered: "Wú". Some earlier Buddhist thinkers had maintained that creatures such as dogs did have the Buddha-nature; others, that they did not. Zhaozhou's answer has subsequently been used by generations of zen students as their initiation into the zen experience. For example, see the accounts of students' struggles with resolving the question of 'Mu' as described in Philip Kapleau's book Three Pillars of Zen. Since the expression 'wu' in Chinese is similar to the sound the Chinese use to imitate a dog's 'woof', an alternate 'explanation' of the utterance has been proposed suggesting that Zhaozhou was imitating a dog in reply, i.e., he answered the question by 'being' the dog. This is consistent with the general principle that Koan 'answers' usually involve adopting radical change of perspective, instead of a logical or linguistic 'answer'.
4) Mu in hacker culture According to the Jargon File, a collection of hacker jargon and culture, Mu (here pronounced "moo") is considered by Discordians to be the correct answer to the classic logical fallacy
of the loaded question "Have you stopped beating your wife?" [1]. Assuming that you have no wife or you have never beaten your wife, the answer "yes" is wrong because it implies that you used to beat your wife and then stopped, but "no" is worse because it suggests that you have once and are still beating her. As a result, various Discordians proposed "mu" as the correct answer, alleged by them to mean "Your question cannot be answered because it depends on incorrect assumptions". An equivalent English reply would be 'not', instead of 'yes' or 'no', as 'not' is one possible meaning of 'mu'. Hackers tend to be sensitive to logical inadequacies in language (one anecdote relates of Richard Stallman that he once was asked, in regard to the Editor Wars, if he preferred Vi or Emacs; he answered "Yes."), and many have adopted this suggestion with enthusiasm.

Mu and/or M designates a series of Japanese booster rockets. All rockets of the series use solid fuels and are started at the Uchinoura Space Center. These rockets were originally developed for Japan's Institute of Space and Aeronautical Science, which was later merged into the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency.

Mu-metal is a nickel-iron alloy (77% nickel, 15% iron, plus copper and molybdenum) that has a very high magnetic permeability. Permeability is represented by µ, the Greek letter mu. The high permeability makes mu-metal very effective at screening magnetic fields. Mu metal requires special heat treatment - annealing in hydrogen atmosphere, which reportedly increases the magnetic permeability about 40 times. The annealing alters the material's crystal structure, aligning the grains and removing some impurities, especially carbon.
Mechanical treatment may disrupt the material's grain alignment, leading to drop of permeability in the affected areas, which can be restored by repeating of the hydrogen annealing step. Uses and properties Mu-metal is used to shield equipment from magnetic fields. For example: * vacuum chambers for experiments with low-energy electrons * magnetic resonance imaging equipment * the magnetometers used in magnetoencephalography and magnetocardiography. * photomultipliers. * cathode-ray tubes used in analog oscilloscopes. * superconducting circuits and esp. Josephson junction circuits. Other materials with similar magnetic properties are supermalloy, supermumetal, nilomag, sanbold, MoPermalloy, Ultraperm, M-1040, etc.
7) A Chinese unit of measurement for AREA: 1 mu (?? / ?) = 10 fen = 60 zhang² = 666.6 m²
Does any of that answer any questions concerning Mu? Didn’t think so. It is fascinating to point out that Mu Metal is used in cathode ray tubes and the Chinese use Mu as a unit of measurement where peculiar math is used. (like you didn’t notice the 666 up there).
Entirely unrelated, but still somewhat significant is the Church of Moo. This church is loosely Erisian, and highly comical. They have one commandment, which is “DO WHAT THOU WILT SHALL BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW, UNLESS THOU WILT NOT FOLLOW THE LAW, IN WHICH CASE, DON'T DO WHAT THOU WILT, see if I care...”
It seems to me that all these “Moo” people are just using the somewhat fashionable “Deities” Eris and ‘Bob’ to sell books. (Also on lulu.com). And more power to them. I mean, they do rank Elvis, Barbie and the Easter Bunny as some of the core Gods of their religion. They must be doing something right. When I contacted Eris concerning all this “Mu” and “Moo” gobbledygook, she only responded, “I really love Tammy Wynette, ever since she got here we’ve been throwing down like you couldn’t dream.” Perchance that’s as first-rate as an answer as one can get from asking questions about a word that factually means “NOTHING.” Equation 1 010010001000110001
A PRIMER FOR ERISIAN EVANGELISTS by Lord Omar The SOCRATIC APPROACH is most successful when confronting the ignorant. The "socratic approach" is what you call starting an argument by asking questions. You approach the innocent and simply ask "Did you know that God's name is ERIS, and that He is a girl?" If he should answer "Yes." then he probably is a fellow Erisian and so you can forget it. If he says "No." then quickly proceed to: THE BLIND ASSERTION and say "Well, He Is a girl, and His name is ERIS!" Shrewedly observe if the subject is convinced. If he is, swear him into the Legion of Dynamic Discord before he changes his mind. If he does not appear convinced, then proceed to: THE FAITH BIT: "But you must have Faith! All is lost without Faith! I sure feel sorry for you if you don't have Faith." And then add: THE ARGUMENT BY FEAR and in an ominous voice ask "Do you know what happens to those who deny Goddess?" If he hesitates, don't tell him that he will surely be reincarnated as a precious Mao Button and distributed to the poor in the Region of Thud (which would be a mean thing to say), just shake your head sadly and, while wiping a tear from your eye, go to: THE FIRST CLAUSE PLOY wherein you point to all of the discord and confusion in the world and exclaim "Well who the hell do you think did all of this, wise guy?" If he says, "Nobody, just impersonal forces." then quickly respond with: THE ARGUMENT BY SEMANTICAL GYMNASTICS and say that he is absolutely right, and that those impersonal forces are female and that Her name is ERIS. If he, wonder of wonders, still remains obstinate, then finally resort to: THE FIGURATIVE SYMBOLISM DODGE and confide that sophisticated people like himself recognize that Eris is a Figurative Symbol for an Ineffable Metaphysical Reality and that The Erisian Movement is really more like a poem than like a science and that he is liable to be turned into a Precious Mao Button and Distributed to The Poor in The Region of Thud if he does not get hip. Then put him on your mailing list.
ALCHEMYFROM THE ZENARCHIST’S COOKBOOK Ingredients: • 1 tsp cleaned and ground marijuana • 1 tsp butter • 1 shot vodka or rum • 1 cup milk • pepper or cinnamon Instructions: 5. Place cleaned, ground marijuana and butter in frying pan and heat on medium, mix until butter starts to sizzle and marijuana browns. Turn down the heat if there’s any smoking 5. Pour in rum quickly. Keep stirring until at least half the shot has evaporated. 5. Add milk and turn down the heat. Stir until milk is steaming, but not boiling. 5. Add a small squirt of honey and stir. 5. Add pepper or cinnamon to taste. Do Not add sugar. This makes an excellent ceramonial drink. The effects should be felt as quickly as 15-30 minutes. The high should be much stronger than that associated with smoking and should last for about 3-4 hours. EDITOR’S NOTE: IGNORE THE PART WHERE IT SAYS TO NOT ADD SUGAR. THAT’S JUST SILLINESS. PLUS, YOU SHOULDN’T BE BELIEVING ANYTHING YOU READ ANYWAY, (REMEMBER THE PENTABARF!) IT’S BEST TO HAVE A GRINDER AND A STRAINER HANDY. THIS MAKES ONE DRINK, BUT KEEP IN MIND I TSP OF POT IS LESS THAN A REGULAR BOWL, AND 1 SHOT ISN’T MUCH BOOZE, SO IT’S EASY TO MAKE A FEW, PLUS IT’S VERY FUN, EFFECTIVE, AND DELICIOUS. HAIL ERIS
THE MASS OF CHAOS (E) The Rite: 1. Statement of Intent: Participants stand round perimeter of circle IT IS OUR WILL TO INVOKE ERIS TO CONSECRATE THIS INSTRUMENT /SACRAMENT TO CHAOS FOR OUR MAGICAL INSPIRATION
2. The priestess draws the Sigil of Chaos above the circle, all visualise. 3. The priestess shouts KALLIATI! to begin the cacophony. 4. The Cacophony: Participants circumambulate widdershins loudly and passionately arguing and proclaiming various beliefs.
5. The priestess gradually dances a spiral inward to the center of the circle and there shouts KALLISTI! to end the cacophony. 6. The circle dance continues and participants
begin chanting somewhat more quietly ERIS,ERIS,ERIS randomly interspersing with equivalent goddess names such as ISHTAR, BABALON, LILITH, and KALI. Participants point towards the priestess with the left hand and visualize the Sigil of Eris into her. The priestess meanwhile delivers the Enochian incantation to Eris, as many times as felt necessary. 7. The priestess makes the Vernacular Proclamation, chanting ceases, but visualization continues. 8. The priestess consecrates the instrument /sacrament. The sacrament (if used) is served. 9. An exorcism is performed if required and Laughter Banishing to close the rite.
Fnord is evaporated herbal tea without the herbs. Fnord is that funny feeling you get when you reach for the Snickers bar and come back holding a slurpee. Fnord is the 43 1/3rd state, next to Wyoming. Fnord is this really, really tall mountain. Fnord is the reason boxes of condoms carry twelve instead of ten. Fnord is the blue stripes in the road that never get painted. Fnord is place where those socks vanish off to in the laundry. Fnord is an arcade game like Pacman without the little dots. Fnord is a little pufflike cloud you see at 5pm. Fnord is the tool the dentist uses on unruly patients.
Marijuana Linked to Sitting Around and Getting High Aside from its uses in making cloth, providing life-saving medicine and constructing rope, the cannabis plant has also been found to get you stoned off your ass. The National Institute of Health released the results of a controversial new study today, one that links the drug marijuana to sitting around and getting high. The study, a comprehensive five-year survey of drug use among Americans, also suggests a possible connection between marijuana and getting baked off your ass. "We have found that where there's marijuana," explained Institute spokesperson Roger Krell, "there's also a good chance of finding stoners on a couch passing around a bong." Krell added that in such situations, "There is also a strong likelihood of finding incense, a TV, and some chips, usually Ruffles." Krell would neither confirm nor deny the alleged link between marijuana and Pink Floyd's The Wall. He would confirm, however, that the album rules. "There is some seriously fucked-up shit on that album," he said. "Especially side two. Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb..." Marijuana, or "pot," as it is called on the street, is a harmless drug that helps you relax and feel mellow. Its only known side-effects are occasional uncontrollable laughter and mild hunger, or "the munchies." Not everyone agrees with the survey's findings. "Getting high is the least of marijuana's uses," said Matt Henner, President of Hemp For Victory and a total pothead. "The ancient Egyptians used hemp to build the pyramids. In the 1930s, the WPA used it to construct bridges and dams. Today it is used for medicine and as a non-polluting alternative to gasoline." Henner then
admitted he was "wasted beyond belief." According to experts, drug use among 15-24 year olds is cool. "That's really the cool age to do drugs," said U.S. Drug Czar Bertrand Seaver. "When you're young, that's the thing to do. In fact, studies show that teenagers who smoke pot are far more likely to be accepted by the in-crowd." While drug use among young people is cool, experts say older people who still do drugs are losers. "A young person who does drugs is healthy and normal," said Harvard sociologist Beth Henterpen. "But if a guy's like 45, and he's still getting high, it's like, 'Get a life!'" Marijuana also has been proven to have the wonderful side-effect of enhanced sexual sensations, enabling some users to achieve transcendental states of erotic bliss. The study found that this link, however, was severely limited in many subjects because they had, due to sitting around all the time, never actually met members of the opposite sex. "But if they did," said Krell, "then it'd be amazing." So far, the study has met with formal protest by only two groups. The Alabama-based Center for the Christian Family, claimed the findings to be terribly inaccurate, noting marijuana's ability to "make users think they can fly and jump out of buildings, like on Quincy, as well as its tendency to induce demon possession, homicidal rampages, and homosexuality." Another group to object to the study was California rapping group Cypress Hill. "Marijuana's not linked to sitting around, man... It's linked to cruising the Barrio with a 40 and a 12 gauge, blowing pendejos away," said group member DJ Muggs. "Hand onna pump, puffin' on a blunt... la la la la laaaaaaaaaaa..."
A Discordian Banishing Ritual: Thee Rite of Pigpen by Prince Mu-Chao Prepare your Area Thusly: Your Banishing Ritual should include carving all the soap in your house to look like various peanuts characters. Discard all soap pieces that have been carved off figurines. Buy no new soap The Rite itself must be subconsciously performed over a period of two weeks. It consists of reminding yourself throughout the day that the person you are banishing is in reality no more powerful than your 5th grade teacher was - it just appears to you that he is from your current position. At the end of the two weeks, arrange to meet this person. When they appear, make sure to spend much time as close to them as possible. This Rite has a difficulty rating of 2. Repeat if necessary. (Pope Nag sent the following Field Test Note: If you do not own actual sticks of soap, but have to make do with liquid soap and/or shampoo, the difficulty rating of the ritual goes up to 3.2.)
How to convert friends and alienate people by Alik Balposod
It's piss easy to do. Say to somebody, 'you're a Discordian' Shazam, let it be so...
ERISIAN MAGIC RITUAL - THE TURKEY CURSE Revealed by the Apostle Dr. Van Van Mojo as a specific counter to the evil Curse of Greyface, THE TURKEY CURSE is here passed on to Erisians everywhere for their just protection. The Turkey Curse works. It is firmly grounded on the fact that Greyface and his followers absolutely require an aneristic setting to function and that a timely introduction of eristic vibrations will neutralize their foundation. The Turkey Curse is designed solely to counteract negative aneristic vibes and if introduced into a neutral or positive aneristic setting (like a poet working out word rhythms) it will prove harmless, or at worst, simply annoying. It is not designed for use against negative eristic vibes, although it can be used as an eristic vehicle to introduce positive vibes into a misguided eristic setting. In this instance, it would be the responsibility of the Erisian Magician to manufacture the positive vibrations if results are to be achieved. CAUTION- all magic is powerful and requires courage and integrity on the part of the magician. This ritual, if misused, can backfire. Positive motivation is essential for self-protection. TO PERFORM THE TURKEY CURSE: Take a foot stance as if you were John L. Sullivan preparing for fisticuffs. Face the particular greyfaced you wish to short-circuit, or towards the direction of the negative aneristic vibration that you wish to neutralize. Begin waving your arms in any elaborate manner and make motions with your hands as though you were Mandrake feeling up a sexy giantess.

Gobble, Gobble Turkey Birds Gobble from the heart. Gobble Gobble all you can Before the humans start. Isn't funny how the Turkey Curse actually works. I find it really affects Greyfaces. Of course, we know it's the Eristic forces waging battle against aneristic ones, they just think it's 'cos we're acting strange.
Wholy Non-existent by Telarus, KSC, KCC Donut Holes! Do they really exist? What purpose did Goddess have in mind when she created this obvious paradox? Is Highlights magazine really Fun with a Porpoise!? Donut holes are an obvious contradictions that most domesticated primates...yeah, most grey-faces… will accept with a shrug. And why do donut holes taste so soft and sugary? What is that sticky-sweetness trying to hide? A creeping, writhing emptiness that should have existed, except for man's troublesome meddling, filling that gaping void with sugar, flour and oil, and therefore encapturing it and removing it from that which defines it, namely, the donut. Today's show has been brought to you by the number i, and the letter §.
Bathroom Games by Pope Ghostly Weasel Why is potty-humor restricted to only those too young to make real trouble? That sucks. Here's some new bathroom games. They all start off the same way: you (and any accomplices you may have) go hide in a public bathroom (in a stall, and pull your feet up so they don't show under the door) and quietly wait for somebody to walk in. In the first game, "Bathroom Cheer", you then cheer them on: "Urinate! Micturate! Pee! Pee! Pee!" (You are welcome to add other cheers as you see fit, that's just the basic one). In the second game, "Bathroom Caroling" (this works best with at least one accomplice, preferably two, so you can do three-part harmony), you sing to them. "Nowhere Man" is a particularly good bathroom caroling song if you can get enough people to do the harmonies. If your visitor joins in the singing, recruit them.
¡¡The Random Initiation Project!! A Discordian Tithing Ritual To be performed every payday, or whenever it seems unnecessary. 1. Obtain five crisp, new one dollar bills. 2. Affix an official-looking Erisian seal to each bill, using a rubber stamp or any other suitable means. 3. Select five people at random out of your telephone book. Only accept those faithful who have listed a mailing address, not those damn sinners who leave it unlisted. 4. Mail one bill to each person, enclosing it with this letter, printed on your cabal's official letterhead:
Dear
, We are writing to inform you that we have been monitoring you and feel that you have reached a point of eligibility for entrance into our organization. Enclosed you will find a $1.00 bill with our seal of initiation. Keep it with you at all times. Soon an agent of ours will approach you and give you the activation phrase "Did you see the moon last night?" Upon hearing this phrase, you are required to present the stamped bill and respond with "It was pointing to the sun." Failure to produce the stamped bill or return the appropriate phrase will end your eligibility for admission. This exercise is the final test determine your cognitive ability hold an idea and remain ready respond over an undetermined period time.
to to to of
You will be contacted when you are least expecting it. Any questions you have will be answered once you have successfully gained entrance into the organization.
5. We suggest that you get in the habit of using the activation phrase publicly at every opportunity. Eris just might have a present for you.
This ritual leverages the profound power of money to sow eristic seeds into the population. Even if the recipient ignores the letter and spends the dollar, the markings on the bill will continue to radiate eristic vibrations on their own. You can't lose.
The Random Initiation Project wasn't thought up by us. We found it on the wonderful neuroatomic.com site. Unfortunately, that site is no more so we reproduced it here for posterity.
Shall I project a world?
The reality is in this head. Mine. I'm the projector at the planetarium, all the closed little universe visible in the circle of that stage is coming out of my mouth, eyes, and sometimes other orifices also.

Mal-2 and the Fish One day, in the interests of religious cross-fertilization, Mal-2 went fishing. He baited the hook with his pineal gland, and quickly caught a nice big fish. Giggling maniacally, he dragged the little sucker into the boat and prepared to sermonize it to death. "Wait!" said the fish. "Why?" Mal-2 asked. "I'm a talking fish! Aren't you curious? Talk to fish all the time, do you?" "Nooooooooo." "Well, then. Listen up. I'm The Cod." "Was that a proper noun?" "YES!" pronounced The Cod majestically. "I am a proper noun bearing COD, and you know what that means." "Yes," Mal-2 sighed. "I've got to catch a less talkative fish." He picked up The Cod, and prepared to throw it back. "Wait! I come bearing a message!" Mal-2 sighed again. "I'm under contract to Eris. She made me sign an exclusivity clause. Besides, no one wants to listen to a fish." "That's why YOU have to do the talking for me," Cod said desperately. "Look, you don't have to worship me, just, you know, when you tell people about Eris, maybe just kind of slip in, 'And you are all children of Cod! Hail Eris!', you know?" Mal-2 lowered the fish, and looked it pentagonally in the eye. "We are all Children of Cod?" "Yep." "What, ALL of us?" "Er... yes?" "Even Eris?"
"Um, no. I guess not." "So we're all children of Eris as well?" "Sure. Why not?" "Are you saying my Goddess had sex with a fish?" Cod moaned in dismay. "Look, of course not. I'm just saying..." "Well, she did." The Cod paused. "Oh. Right. THAT party... woo. Well, irregardless. Will you do it?" "Yes. But one more question about this Children of Cod thing..." "Okay," the Cod shrugged. Mal-2 had never seen a fish shrug before, and was suitably impressed. "So, all of us are Children of Cod? Everyone except Eris?" "Yup." "What about you? Are you a Child of Cod?" Mal-2 asked. "Um, yes." said Cod uncertainly. "Yes! Yes I am!" "How can you be your own child?" The Cod looked at Mal-2 with an evil glint in his fishy eye. "Go fuck yourself!" And Mal-2 was enlightened. But Cod sank his boat anyway, just for being a smart-ass. And he got wet, but didn't drown, and was still enlightened.
Testimonials Read What Former Christians Have to Say About Eris Since the DSSS/PMM has been engaging in counterevangelism activities, several former Evangelical Christians have had their minds opened by our guerrilla ontology and our dedication to Eris. We never thought we could get Christians to change their minds, reject the putrid viral-memes of dogma, and blossom to Pineal maturity as Erisians. But then again, who can resist Eris? The following are some short testimonials written by former Christians who have been liberated. We will add more as we get them. "I was born in a house completely ruled by Yahweh. As an infant, I have been offered to him through an ancient water ritual. I have worshipped the Christ for 21 years, mastering many of his dark arts and I have progressed to one of the higher positions in His Kingdom. However, my life was a constant torture, full of loneliness and hate. I was convinced that I would never escape from Yahweh's claws. Now, I thank my Lady, Eris, for well-deserved laughter. When I wanted to break free, She sent me help and exploded my mind. And while in all agonies and distress, I threw myself at Her feet. She granted me laughter and poptarts. It all was for free. Today I am standing as a witness that Eris laughs and illuminates
even the dirtiest of aneristics. Rise up, there is hope! All Hail the Goddess Eris!" -Burning Trees, Creatrix of Confusion "Dear Reader, Eris did NOT die for me. So now I can live for Her! Or Myself! Or whatever I see fit! Chaos, Discord, and Laughter are the Powers that set me FREE. False religions, lies, divorce, deception and hurt were all part of my childhood life. Due to the Curse of Greyface placed on me before birth by my ancestors, I was doomed to a life of total destruction. The interference of Eris and Her children broke the curses, oaths and covenants of order. She delivered me from a life caught in fundamentalism, Bible-worship, addiction and dogma. She helped me shatter the chains that kept me captive in the darkness. My hurt She healed and my hate was replaced with the true love of Will. She gave me hope instead of despair, compassion in the place of rejection, and intelligent vindication in the face of denial. She wants to help you do the same for yourself! She revealed Herself as the Mother of all Gods (when She is not in drag), a sometimes irritating friend and a confidant. She loves me despite the fact that I had denied Her - even though I had personally chosen to follow one of Her supposed enemies, Yahweh. (Though Aphrodite may be another.) With Her laughter, She has washed away my sick addiction to order. Her laughter is still calling today. In fact it is calling to you if you have not yet made the decision to follow the Lady of Discordia, the true and free energies of Chaos, Eris. You see, it doesn't matter what mistakes you have made in the past, give in to the laughter and confusion of Eris and you will never be the same again!" -Max Fishbones, KNS, Shepherd of the Pies, General Dysfunction of the Right Jihad Against Pinkery
"I used to be afraid to leave the Christian Cult of my family. I was afraid that they might do something horrible to me. In their places of sacrifice (which they call 'churches' to mock the Erisian Irreligion), I was witness to all sorts of horrible occult crimes, such as the drinking of human blood (which they call the Blood of Christ), and cannibalism. I was looking for a way out but had lost all hope, because the Christians are everywhere, from the loweliest of trailor-park dwellers to the highest echelons of power. I was afraid that they would use their dark occult powers of prayer (a particularly secretive form of Christian hex-casting) and bibliolatry. Their evil conspiracy was everywhere in control of society...Or so they had me believe. All Praise to Eris! I am now free of that delusion. I have seen through the lies. I am no longer afraid because I stand, dance, wiggle, and laugh with the Children of Chaos. I am no longer a slave to the perversions of Christianity. Now I'm free. -Selena the Silly, High Priestess of the POEE
UNDERMINE The Stupidity of the Masses By a thorough explanation of the Law of Laws (being an account of the Law of Laws) 1) All laws are incorrect, except those which are correct. 2) All incorrect laws are correct, except those which are not. 3) All correct laws are incorrect, inasmuch as they are not correct, but correct, inasmuch as they may be. 4)All laws that may be correct are correct, unless they are otherwise. 5)There are always five laws.
These Laws are simple enough to explain to any of the televated masses and even if they/you don’t get them at first, the seeds have been planted. Just sit back, relax, and ponder the universal meaning of these laws and the occult significance of having holes in one’s socks.

YOU ARE DISCORDIAN WHETHER YOU WANT TO BE OR NOT! Not wishing to exclude anyone from the Discordian movement for such a technicality as not being a Discordian, it is hereby declared that all who read this are officially inducted into the Discordian movement—and the cabal of your own choosing—as a full apostle of Eris with all rights whatsoever. If, by some strange brain malfunction, you should decide that this is not what you wish, then simply ignore this notice as you would all other possibly life-changing notices. Do note that you will still be considered a Discordian, regardless of what you think, or if, in fact, you think at all. From this moment forward you will be treated as a member of the Discordian Society by other members. Don’t worry. We know our own. Only a cabbage disguised as a human being would not understand.

How to Witness to Christians It is quite difficult to witness to Christians, mostly because they are such a diverse group of people. All the ideas on this site will only affect some - for other Christians, using rational thought or logic may not work. Many Christians may be as I was - trapped in a cycle of dogma and frightened to leave. They need to know that you, and Eris, love them and will always be there for them. Make sure they know they can take refuge if they need to. Be aware that Christians who are at the higher levels will be very much trapped by Yahweh. They may feel frightened to leave, they may feel that they are too evil for Eris or for Erisians to accept them, and they need to know that you are there for them. Some of them really do believe that they will be sent to hell if they try to leave. Other Christians in at this level may be aggressive, highly anti-Erisian and attempt to convert you to Christianity. Always keep in mind that a hurting soul may be concealed under that tough exterior. That doesn't mean you should go easy on them - Christian error should be challenged, but keep the message of love and freedom in there. Lower-level Christians may not know of the higher levels - they are generally introduced gradually into these dogmas and errors, as I was. Let them know of the reality behind Christianity, but if they do not accept it, do not become disheartened. If they have not been accepted into the higher levels yet then you have the chance to bring them to Eris before they enter such a dangerous situation. Challenging their beliefs, use of testimonies and the message of love and freedom are good ways to attempt this.
Be aware that Christians value dogma and belief more than anything else (logical, considering who their master is) and do not appreciate being told that their beliefs are wrong. They pride themselves on being true. So point out that this means that they should listen and think about Erisianism too. Make sure you find out exactly what their dogmas and beliefs are - there are a wide variety of different beliefs in Christianity. Always pray for the person you are witnessing to, that they may be able to see the truth of Chaos and have the courage to get out of Christianity. Make sure you know general apologetics and guerrilla ontologymany Christians will attack your faith if you try to witness to them. There are a number of good sites about this on the web, such as www.principiadiscordia.com, or this site. Many more can be found on Google. Be aware that many Christians have enormous regard for the arts and good Erisian prose, poetry or artwork may touch them deeply. Consider using examples of these. Although many Christians are well-read and can argue against Erisianism they often do not understand the message. Never assume they know about it and always explain it when witnessing. As many Christians are very web-friendly, directing them to good Erisian sites may be helpful - see our links section. And lastly, remember THE BATTLE IS ALREADY WON!!! YOU ARE FREE!

Eris Discordia - the Existence of Goddess The proof of her existence - step 1 Eris in Greek, Discordia in Latin, means "strive" or "twist". A feeling to express that two opinions don't match. Thus she is the Goddess of things that don't match. The proof of her existence - step 2 My opinion is that Eris exists. Yours might not be the same. If it is, and we agree, then we both are saved, and there's no problem. The proof of her existence - step 3 So you disagree about the existence of Eris, uh? Maybe you already see your mistake. Eris is the Goddess of Discord, remember? The fact you believe she does not exist, is a priori the proof of her existence. Surely it can't be that easy? Yes it is. And stop gazing, please...
SUMMARY I Eris is the Goddess of Discord II She does not want you to understand her existence, or at least deny it III If you do understand her existence, and don't deny it, she's cool. I mean, she's Goddess, you know, why would she care some mortal nerd prooved her existence? IV If you don't understand her existence, and do deny it, you are actually prooving her existence - maybe without knowing it. She wants you to disagree, and you do; so she exists, or else the mechanism of disagreement would not. V Therefore, Eris Discordia exists and is Goddess of all White Handed Gibbons. That's such a louzy argumentation, even Anselmus did better! Well, then I believe that's just your problem. Is that all? Yes it is! Are you joking? Of course I am, that's the whole point...
The Spiral of Chaotic Bliss aka The Chaosmiley
This is the spiral of chaotic bliss/ It is a corruption of the eight pointed star of chaos. It represents the happiness experienced at the very center of chaos. It represents the happiness when one experiences when one is at the very center of chaos. Most people, however, do not want to be at the center of chaos, in fact there is an ancient eastern curse: "may you live in interesting times". Interesting times were
considered pretty bad news, but for a Discordian this is more of a blessing than a curse. Which means you can wish it on other people without fucking up your karma (we hope). The Chaos Spiral represents enjoyment of 'interesting times'. Doodle it on your notebooks, write it on your walls, stick it on your webpages - demonstrate your willingness to live in interesting times... If you have any, er, interesting times as a result of this - please let us know. The spiral also represents the Discordian Lifestyle(!), most discordians are often found at the center of chaos, enjoying themselves. Often the chaos is of their own instigation.
Finally! The solution to all, yes, all your problems:
more stuff! Life getting you down?
GET MORE STUFF! Do you think life can't get any better?
YOU STILL NEED MORE STUFF! Buy stuff, steal stuff, make stuff, IT DOSN'T MATTER. What matters is that you need more
and more and
more STUFF!
Let your first thought, even before you open your eyes, be:
TODAY, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF.
As you fall asleep, last thing at night, repeat to yourself:
I NEED MORE STUFF, I WANT MORE STUFF, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF... I NEED MORE STUFF, I WANT MORE STUFF, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF... I NEED MORE STUFF, I WANT MORE STUFF, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF... I NEED MORE STUFF, I WANT MORE STUFF, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF... I NEED MORE STUFF, I WANT MORE STUFF, I SHALL GET MORE STUFF...
Remember:
YOU NEED MORE STUFF.
The Law of Fives: Proved! Rescued from The Cabal of the One True Marshmallow The Law of Fives is so obviously true that you should have already realized it (note; this is similar reasoning to that used by Thomas Aquinas when he explained why people who had never heard of Jesus could still be damned). However, we will prove the law of fives here anyways. 1. Descartes, famed philosopher who thought that he could prove the existence of God, was invited go and tutor the 23 year old Queen of Scandanavia. The rigors of the cold climat and the fact that she demanded that the lessons began at 5 am eventually caused him to succumb to pnemonia and die. Recently, evidence has come to light that Decartes might not have been killed by natural causes. Some suspect that he was killed by arsenic poisoning.

It has come to the attention of The Esoteric Funkmasters Cabal that there is a new celebrity backed cult knocking about in the meme pool. It is known as the cosmic ordering service and is propagated for money, via Barbel Mohr. her book is The Cosmic Ordering Service: A Guide to Realizing Your Dreams. Here is a Synopsis from amazon.com: This is a guide aimed at helping the reader realize their dreams - just by placing an order with the universe. The author explains how she used the "cosmic ordering service" to gain her dream job, the ideal man, money, health - even a castle to live in! She intends here to show the reader how to listen to their inner voice, place their order, sit back and let marvellous things just happen. This comic ordering service involves drawing a pictorial symbol onto the 'skank' of skin betwixt the thumb and forefinger or pretty much whatever the fuck you feel like doing, but it turns out that you can only have 6 wishes. Our best research scientists have discected this information and have drawn the following conclusions:
• •
• •
•
Their conclusions were mainly drawn in crayon, but here they are nonetheless. It is neither the work of the ELF, nor the POEE nor the Justified Aincients Of Mumu. Since it only gives 6 wishes, not 5 or 23 it is obviously not a Discordian jake. It has the backing of Aneristic UK Television (ahem) celeb Noel Edmunds who's greyfaced vibes freak us out. Its called the Cosmic ORDERing system, therefore imposing order upon perfectly reasonable chaos and is possibly a shady Illuminati plot. Mr. Painty smells of goats cheese
We propose a jake barrage on mr. edmonds, that we would like to enlist your help in. in the meanwhile, our creative boffins here, are working on a parody ebook The Universal Chaos Matrix by Barbra Moel. Supporting information to help with your jakes follows: Barbel Mohr quotes "There are spiritual teachings assuming that the light is the fundamental element for every substance. The more light (=loving purposes) a order receives the quicker it will come true because it contains more 'fundamental element-energy'. If you want to wish your neighbours technical breakdowns in their home or anything else unkind, you can be assured that the universal ordering service doesn't want to know about it. The acceptance-ban or limit is therefore not more than our own imagination."
"Many spiritual teachers assume that the inner condition determines the outer circumstances. It's just that you almost always create your life unconsciously subsequently to your inner expectations. To order with the cosmos means to do this CONSCIOUSLY." meh. meh. meh. Noel Edmonds quotes: "You'll think I've gone away with the fairies," says he, "but it's fantastic. At 57, why shouldn't I give cosmic ordering a go? After all, it seems to work." "Some believers stand on a cliff and look at the breaking waves, some look at the moon, and some just write it down on a bit of a paper. Me being me, I wrote down an order." See? He said it again. "Order." The Rev. Ignatious Dryroasted Chaffinch, Keeper of The Odd Socks, Hammer Of The Cheese, High Benevolent Polyglot, HC.

BECOME BORN AGAIN IN ERIS!! At this moment I invite you to bow your head or get on your knees and say this prayer: Oh Eris, I admit that I have sinned against stuff, and that’s OK. Because you’re cool like that. I openly receive and trust you as my personal Goddess. I confess you as my Lord. From this moment on I want to live for Her and serve Her in the fellowship of Her church. Awoman. I believe that Eris is the one true Goddess of Chaos. I commit myself to Her as the Lord and Savior of my life.
Signed _______________________________________ Date If you sincerely prayed this prayer, my friend, then welcome home! Welcome into the love and fellowship of the family of Eris!
